Many of North Carolina’s business, policy and health care leaders all agree that the Certificate of Need law is critical to their communities.

Certificate of Need (CON) Under Attack

Some lawmakers have proposed eliminating the Certificate of Need (CON) law because competition lowers health care costs. This has not been the case in states that repealed Certificate of Need (CON). For example, McAllen, Texas, Medicare costs per patient are more than twice the national average.

• Certificate of Need (CON) states have lower costs.
• Certificate of Need (CON) ensures we have quality health care in all 100 counties.
• Certificate of Need (CON) is critical to the long term economic future of North Carolina.
